E o verbo se fez rede: Uma análise da circulaçao do "católico" em redes comunicacionais online

Moisés Sbardelotto

Sao Leopoldo: Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos, Doctoral Thesis (2016), 498 pp.

"Esta tese analisa como se organizam os processos midiáticos de circulação do “católico” em redes comunicacionais online, que emergem em plataformas sociodigitais, como Facebook e Twitter. A análise se dá por meio de um estudo de casos múltiplos, articulado com gestos de lurking e entrevi ... stas focais semiestruturadas realizadas com responsáveis pela comunicação católica no Vaticano e no Brasil, a partir de um nível suprainstitucional (a conta @Pontifex_pt, no Twitter); um nível institucional vaticano (a página Rádio Vaticano – Programa Brasileiro, no Facebook); um nível socioinstitucional brasileiro (a página Jovens Conectados, no Facebook); e um nível minoritário periférico brasileiro (a página Diversidade Católica, no Facebook). A partir de questões pontuais e proposições, os eixos de articulação e tensionamento teóricos refletem sobre os conceitos de midiatização; midiatização digital; e midiatização digital da religião. Analisam-se, depois, os quatro casos empíricos em torno da circulação do “católico” em rede, a partir das interfaces, protocolos e reconexões observados em cada caso, interpretando criticamente os processos envolvidos na midiatização digital da religião, em três ângulos diferenciados de inferências. Primeiro, no âmbito da midiatização digital, examina-se a emergência de redes comunicacionais online, que articulam circuitos e alimentam o fluxo circulatório. Segundo, no âmbito da circulação midiática em rede, constata-se a emergência de um dispositivo conexial, isto é, um complexo de inter-relações entre processos tecnossimbólicos (interfaces), sociotécnicos (protocolos) e sociossimbólicos (reconexões) que, de forma inter-retroativa, delimitam, condicionam e condensam as práticas religiosas em rede. Em terceiro lugar, no âmbito da reconstrução do “católico”, aponta-se para a emergência de um novo interagente comunicacional, o “leigo-amador”, e de heresias comunicacionais, mediante as quais se dá a invenção/produção de algo novo (construção) e a experimentação/transformação de algo já existente (desconstrução) em torno do catolicismo. Como conclusão, pondera-se sobre o surgimento de uma “religião (em) comum”, marcada por um saber-fazer e por um poder-fazer simbólico-religiosos compartilhados comunicacionalmente para a promoção de experiências; o estabelecimento de crenças; e a configuração de práticas religiosas nas sociedades contemporâneas."
